Would Opposition Cease If Illiana Stopped At I-65?

A Porter County legislator's comments have me wondering if the compromise to get the Illiana built might be to just run the Illiana from I-65 to the west?

Reports the Chesterton Tribune:

According to a statement released today, State Sen. Vic Heinhold, R-Kouts, has announced that he wants to remove the largest portion of the Illiana Toll Road from the rest of the language in S.B. 1. Instead, the statement said, he “favors an independent study of the eastern leg extending from I-65 east through Lake, Porter, and LaPorte counties.”


I wonder if a win-win could be had by all if the Illiana began at I-65 in Lake County and extended westward?
